Event Details
What do ancient manuscripts, forgotten instruments and secret codes sound like? Enter the imagination of composer Damien Ricketson when ANAM musicians led by Ensemble Offspring Artistic Director and percussionist Claire Edwardes apply their creative skills to his novel forms. Ricketson’s fragile sounds are complemented by the music of two of his early mentors; the sinewy counterpoint of the late Bozidar Kos and the bold textures of renowned Dutch composer Louis Andriessen.
Featured non-Australian music: Louis Andriessen – Klokken voor Haarlem
